Prokofiev was renowned for his uncompromisingly direct behaviour. On one occasion he berated a famous singer saying – within the hearing of her many admirers – that she understood nothing of his music. Seeing her eyes brim, he mercilessly sharpened his tongue and humiliated her still further: ‘All of you women take refuge in tears instead of listening to what one has to say and learning how to correct your faults.’ One of Prokofiev’s long-suffering friends in France, fellow Russian émigré Nicolas Nabokov, sought to explain the composer’s boorishness by saying ‘Prokofiev, by nature, cannot tell a lie. He cannot even say the most conventional lie, such as “This is a charming piece”, when he believes the piece has no charm. […] On the contrary he would say exactly what he thought of it and discuss at great length its faults and its qualities and give valuable suggestions as to how to improve the piece.’ Nabokov said that for anyone with the resilience to withstand Prokofiev’s gruff manner and biting sarcasm he was an invaluable friend.

  • Scaramouche and the Commedia Dell'arte
    Scaramouche Sibelius’s horror story Eija Kurki © Finnish National Opera and Ballet archives / Tenhovaara Scaramouche. Ballet in 3 scenes; libr. Paul [!] Knudsen; mus. Sibelius; ch. Emilie Walbom. Prod. 12 May 1922, Royal Dan. B., CopenhaGen. The b. tells of a demonic fiddler who seduces an aristocratic lady; afterwards she sees no alternative to killinG him, but she is so haunted by his melody that she dances herself to death. Sibelius composed this, his only b. score, in 1913. Later versions by Lemanis in Riga (1936), R. HiGhtower for de Cuevas B. (1951), and Irja Koskkinen [!] in Helsinki (1955). This is the description of Sibelius’s Scaramouche, Op. 71, in The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet. Initially, however, Sibelius’s Scaramouche was not a ballet but a pantomime. It was completed in 1913, to a Danish text of the same name by Poul Knudsen, with the subtitle ‘Tragic Pantomime’. The title of the work refers to Italian theatre, to the commedia dell’arte Scaramuccia character. Although the title of the work is Scaramouche, its main character is the female dancing role Blondelaine. After Scaramouche was completed, it was then more or less forgotten until it was published five years later, whereupon plans for a performance were constantly being made until it was eventually premièred in 1922. Performances of Scaramouche have 1 attracted little attention, and also Sibelius’s music has remained unknown. It did not become more widely known until the 1990s, when the first full-length recording of this remarkable composition – lasting more than an hour – appeared. Previous research There is very little previous research on Sibelius’s Scaramouche.

In fact, his single-movement Seventh Symphony Op. 105 (1924) and the tone poem Tapiola Op. 112 (1926) demonstrate just how close these two genres came to merging in his output. Tone poems linked Sibelius to the radical Romantic composers of the 19th century: programme music allowed composers to expand their musical idiom and to break out of the bounds of formal structures.

  • Josephson 2017.3425 Words
    Reconciling Opposites: On the Compositional Genesis of Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II and The Oceanides Nors S. Josephson Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II, Op. 66, were conceived as a sequel to Scènes historiques I, Op. 25, which had been completed in September 1911 as a revision of Nos. 2, 5 and 4 (or Tableaux 1, 4 and 3) from the earlier Press Celebrations Music of 1899. Furthermore, Scènes historiques II also echo certain aspects of Sibelius’s Karelia Suite, Op. 11, notably the E flat major fanfares of the well-known Intermezzo (composed in 1893). Significantly, Sibelius had written to Breitkopf & Härtel at the end of 1909 – in response to his publisher’s entreaties – that ‘it would be easy to make a suite in the Carelia style’ (‘eine Suite in Style Carelia sich gut machen lässt’[1]). The actual music of Sibelius’s Scènes historiques II was composed between 28th May 1909 (the day he mentioned in his diary that the first movement [Die Jagd] was being planned) and March/April1912.[2] On 1st July 1911 he refers to both an overture (likely the future Die Jagd with its subtitle, Ouvertüre) and a suite – two works that are again listed in his entries for 9th and 11th January 1912 (there worded Suite symphonique). Not until 20th January 1912 does Die Jagd become synonymous with the above-mentioned overture (‘for a limited characteristic orchestra’ with bass clarinet and horns). Sibelius worked especially hard on Die Jagd between 16th December 1911 and 19th February 1912. From his entries on 4th and 15th February we learn that he extensively revised the hunting fanfares in Die Jagd – which are frequently related to sketches for Sibelius’s Cassazione, Op.
